The guy at the Shell station in union did a spot-on impersonation of Tim Conway's "slow moving old man" character from the Carol Burnett Show. Oh, Harvey Korman could not supress his laughter at that! Not quite as funny when you want to get somewhere.

My dad and I used to watch this religiously. This is one of my favorite ‚ÄúHarvey Korman can‚Äôt keep it together‚ÄĚ sketches.

Watching CNN The Sixties-memories! Nothing funnier that Carol Burnett, Harvey Korman & Tim Conway! Watched The Twilight Zone & would be too scared to walk upstairs to my room; often slept on couch! The Beatles on Ed Sullivan Show was the best! Fun to go back to the 60s~~even if just for an hour!

Who ‚Äúdied‚ÄĚ now? Or did Harvey Korman and Rue McClanahan rise from the grave only to die again, again?

Grammer ought to play the life story of Harvey Korman.

I believe Harvey Korman's scalp hole features prominently in that version of the Santapede.

The Carol Burnett Show showcased 2,225 sketches in its shows run! Amazing...considering the leads were two women (Carol Burnett & Vicky Lawrence) and the two men (Tim Conway & Harvey Korman) were in the back roles for that time period!

Who are they going to get now that Harvey Korman and Bea Arthur are dead?

I never noticed it until now, but Ford's a real "2 for the price of 1" on Harvey Korman and Tim Conway. (ATTN: Carol Burnett)

Pics of the late Harvey Korman as Ed and Louise Ann Duart as Eunice. Both are "husband and wife" character's from "Mama's Family" and "The Carol Burnett Show". In real life, Louise and Harvey were great friends. It's sad, both never played these characters together.

Harvey Korman showing us how to make a transmitter, in a segment seemingly guest-directed by David Lynch.

I'm hoping for all of Harvey Korman's characters to put in an appearance. And Art Carney. AND Chewie's family!

29 Apr 2014 21:17

I, for one, cant wait for CG Harvey Korman and Cantina owner Bea Arthur turn up along with a Jefferson starship remix.

My favorite part of every Carol Burnett skit was when Harvey Korman would crack up at Tim Conway. And he *always* did.

25 Apr 2014 00:56

Classic! I've it before and I've still got tears rolling down. Funny guy. He & Harvey Korman were great together.

Tim Conway (the man who many of you said I resemble throughout my youth; I don't see it) is 78 today. As a tribute, here is he and the late, great Harvey Korman in one of the greatest sketches ever written:

Ok... This hospital is cra-zy! I half expect Tim Conway or Harvey Korman to walk in as my doctor.

This stuff never gets old! Tim Conway and Harvey Korman and the Old Doctor-

I miss TV shows that were built around a nuclear family. You know an actual married set of parents... kids who respected and obeyed them. Story lines that were clean enough for the family to actually watch together w/o someone having to mute the conversation. Subjects besides sex, *** and making Christians appear like knuckle-dragging mountain gorillas. My heart goes out to kids who think this stuff is normal. I miss shows where people didn't have to be filthy to be funny. We seem to have misplaced our moral compass. I loved shows that taught values of honesty, integrity, love, forgiveness, hard work, clean living, and simple upright behavior. I loved the humor of Barney, Andy, Opie, and Aunt Bea; I loved Red Skelton, John Wayne, Carol Burnett, Bob Newhart, and Harvey Korman. Those people were funny, talented, and understood they had no right to pour verbal vomit into the ears of their audience. I appreciate that. That's old school...I got that. I like old school. Old school had some good t ...

I just ordered the 1985 live-action Alice in Wonderland/Through the Looking Glass. I was about the most excited girl in history. And then I found out that John Stamos is in it. It was too much. Especially when you consider it also has Donald O'Conner, Carol Channing, Harvey Korman, Scott Baio, and Ann Jillian, just to name a few. So excited to share this with Robert Eaton. And Babes in Toyland, which he has not seen.
